Overview

E-business is not only about making key business processes available over the web. It is leveraging web technologies to transform and re-create businesses, with leaders defining and dominating new business opportunities and followers falling by the wayside. To be a leader in the world of e-business demands both a vision of the business possibilities and the ability to transform the vision into a reality. You need to understand how major new technologies are changing the business landscape and you need to know what concrete approaches will bring order to e-business implementation chaos. To do this, you need the knowledge to map your business vision onto a systems architecture that is cost-effective, reliable, secure, and flexible enough to tolerate rapid change. And you need it now.

About the Workshop
The Management Overview of e-Business is designed to educate both business and IT professionals on the most important e-business trends: the customer-driven enterprise, the development of online B2B marketplaces, and the changing of the employee business culture. You will learn about the characteristics of an agile organization and what others are doing to achieve agility; how to seize unexpected market opportunities, satisfy unexpected customer demands, organize on the fly and tap into everyone’s abilities. The workshop presents an overview of the technology behind e-business. Understanding business trends and technology is of little use if they cannot be put into practice. Traditional software development methods and technologies are often inadequate for e-business projects. You will learn about integrating business process redesign initiatives with the latest trends in application development, and about the challenges of e-project management.
